Immi: The best days of our lives

Don't forget that Imogen Heap's new song Not Now But Soon is out today on iTunes(from the Heroes soundtrack). Update: As you may see in the comments, the record company has chosen to make Immi's song available as "album only" meaning it will cost you $.99. I don't know where to begin about this practice. It's pure greed and shows how the industry has not fully adopted the new model of song-by-song downloads. They see a cash potential in forcing people to buy the full album and must figure that any sales lost are made up in the price gouge. What they don't factor in is the consistent ill will this model exhibits toward consumers. It says "We don't care what you want from us. We want your money."
